But how did such a proud and noble leader of the Freedom Fighters get turned into such a grotesque and bloodthirsty monster???
Simple... Love, betrayal, and a dark deception...
Sally had spent her entire life fighting the reign of the wicked Dr. Ivo Robotnik, ever since he usurped her father and imprisoned him in another dimension. Robotnik's latest scheme to obtain the seven Chaos Emeralds would create a superweapon powerful enough to destroy all of South Island, and the Freedom Fighter base with it. Sally sent the Freedom Fighters' most elite members, Sonic the Hedgehog and his sidekick Tails, to thwart Robotnik's plans once again, but little did she know this would mark the beginning of the end...
During their hunt for Robotnik's base, Tails was captured by the doctor's SWATbots and brought to his stronghold. Robotnik then sought out Sonic, and told him he was willing to make a deal in exchange for Tails' life. The doctor preyed upon Sonic's compassion for his friends as his one weakness, and used it to his advantage... With no other options to save his best friend, Sonic agreed to whatever deal Robotnik had in mind. The deal was that if Sonic could locate all of the Chaos Emeralds and bring them to Robotnik to power his superweapon, he would also use the Emeralds' power to open a gateway to a lost paradise and save Sonic and Tails while the rest of South Island burned. If Sonic didn't bring him the Emeralds, Tails would die...
Sonic looked all over South Island and beyond, but try as he might, he was unable to recover the Chaos Emeralds. With only one option left, he attempted an assault on Robotnik's facility, but even after defeating its guardian, Silver Sonic, he was unable to find a single Emerald or any sign of Tails... The pain of failure looming heavily upon him, Sonic ran and ran far, both from Robotnik and from the Freedom Fighters, unable to face either...
With both Sonic and Tails not reporting in for days, Sally sent teams of scouts out along their route to try and locate any sign of the duo. They returned from one of Sonic's campsites with his recovered journal, dictating Tails' capture, Robotnik's offer, and Sonic's failure to save his friend. Shocked and heartbroken by Tails' presumed death and Sonic's apparent betrayal, Sally fell into a state of emotional turmoil that no one could seem to get her out of. Robotnik had dealt her more than one blow, not only taking Tails from her, but also making Sonic, her love, betray her as well...
With no other weapons to fight Robotnik, Sally turned to more... unconventional means. She began spending much time in the catacombs under the ruins of her father's palace, researching forbidden and occult knowledge, rituals, summoning, necromancy, among other things. She wasn't about to let Robotnik defeat her... She would do whatever it took to get even...
It wasn't long after her research began that she found what she was looking for--an ancient tome with a set of instructions detailing how to contact a demon. What surprised her was how simple it was--no pentagrams formed in her own blood or incantations in some ancient long-dead language, and the sacrifice of a virgin was certainly not a requirement, as annoying as Amy was. All she needed was a full can of salt, seven red candles, something to light the candles with, a full length of red string, a full-length floor or wall mirror, and a chapel of the gods to perform the ritual in. She remembered there was an old mirror in the attic of the now-abandoned chapel near the palace, so that night she gathered the other necessary belongings and headed for the chapel a bit before midnight. Once in the attic she set up the mirror in the center of the room, and began setting up her protective wards--first, she surrounded the mirror with a complete circle of salt, then wrapped her red string around the mirror several times. After that she set up her red candles at equal intervals on the rim of the circle and lit them in a clockwise fashion. Now she was ready to proceed with the actual summoning by first getting the demon's attention... To do that, she needed to prove her resolve by performing a sacrilegious act in the holy space. Normally a Bible of the Divine Ones would not be accepted in the ritual space, but not after Sally took out a severed feral lamb's leg and scribbled the demon's name all over its cover and pages in the lamb's blood before throwing it before the mirror. When she was finished she stared as hard as she could into the mirror and wished for her conversation partner to appear there. The demon's name echoed in her mind as she closed her eyes and counted to ten...
Zalgo...
Zalgo...
ZALGO...
When she opened her eyes, she nearly fell backwards in shock! She expected to be staring at a hideous beast with six mouths and snarling fangs, but was met face to face with... her father??? No; it was not King Acorn... It looked like him, with the exception of the horrid blackened eyes that stared unblinking at her... The demon initiated the conversation as she stared shocked at him, asking her what she wanted by summoning him. Sally explained that she wanted to make an offer with him, and told him she would gladly give him whatever he desired in exchange for making Robotnik and Sonic suffer for the death of Tails--Robotnik for killing him and Sonic for abandoning him and betraying her... Zalgo listened as Sally told him her plight, and how even through this she still loves Sonic... He told her that he could preserve Sonic's body, so that she could have him all to herself when all is said and done, but the price she would pay for her desires would be great. As he said this, the reflection in the mirror changed from King Acorn to Sonic himself, and Zalgo told Sally that if she truly wanted to go through with this deal, then she should break one of her protective wards, but doing so would mean that Sonic's image would be lost to Sally forever, as the sacrifice Zalgo would want at the moment would be Sally's eyes... As soon as Sally was ready she undid the string surrounding the mirror, and the figure of Sonic changed into a demonic being with blackened irises and blood-red pupils that lashed out of the mirror and ripped Sally's eyes from her sockets as she screamed... She was found staggering back to the Freedom Fighter hideout using a stick for support, her empty sockets sewn shut...
Dr. Robotnik's Diary
11/17/92
Sonic didn't bring me the Emeralds! What a shame... Looks like I'll have to look for them myself; right, Tails??? Oh, don't cry... There's nothing you can do to survive... This is useless...
11/18/92
On my quest to find the Emeralds I found something interesting... An intriguing mirror! When I looked into it, I found someone... or something... that knew my name...
"So, you are the evil Dr. Ivo Robotnik that I've heard about... You are a really good scientist... But... there's something that always gets in your way... like a rat..." he said.
"That's right! There's a pesky little hedgehog that always ruins my plans and destroys my stuff!" I replied.
"Sonic, isn't he?" he said.
"Yes! How did you know that?" I replied.
"I'm always watching you. I know your potential... Why don't we make a deal?" he asked.
"What kind of deal?" I asked.
"I can enter into your world and kill him. When I kill him, he won't actually die. His body will look dead in your world, but he will be alive in my world, which is impossible to escape,' he told me, "To enter into your world, I need a living host body. Don't worry; the host won't actually die. He'll just be transferred to my world and will be stuck there forever until he dies there."
So I used Tails as the host body! I'm so excited to end Sonic once and for all!

This is terrible!
That monster is out of control!
He betrayed me and is destroying my lab!
Someone has to stop him! Please stop him!!!
--End of Diary--
See how it all began!
Can you feel the sunshine???
The birth of Sonic.exe!
Play the game... if you dare!!!
With Sonic's body now his, Zalgo began to use his new puppet to remove anyone that could pose a threat to his rebirth. This included Knuckles the Echidna, whose connection to the energies of Chaos allowed him to sense the evil stirring in the demon's realm. He then began to target other members of the Freedom Fighters, like the lovestruck Amy Rose and the innocent Cream the Rabbit, before coming to claim Sally's soul as part of his deal. It was only then that Sally realized, Zalgo had lied to her... He wasn't planning on giving her HER Sonic; he wanted Sonic's body for its affinity to harness the power of Chaos so he could use it as an avatar to bring about the Apocalypse! The only Sonic she would ever get to be with would be that abomination that would soon lay her world asunder... But by the time she realized this, it was already far too late...
Sally's endgame...
"Sonic... my love..."
But this was not the end for Sally... As the Apocalypse raged across Mobius and her ears rang with the screams of her people, Sally's thoughts changed from those of pain and sorrow to those of pure, bloodthirsty hatred for Zalgo, Sonic, and all those that served them... This intense hatred caught the attention of Goddess_Elise, who had been seeking an avatar to help fight Zalgo's demonic hordes and offered to help Sally get her revenge. Using her divine powers taken from when she absorbed the power of Solaris, Elise returned Sally to the ruined world of the living, and gave her a parting gift in the form of a new left eye. This "Demon's Eye", as Elise called, appeared as a fiery red pupil in the center of a black void in Sally's now-open left eye socket, and would give her the power and ferocity she would need to deliver judgment to her enemies and pretty much anyone who even takes one step in her way... It would also allow her to absorb and devour the souls of those she kills, sending them to an eternity of agony in her merciless digestive tract while feeding off their pain and allowing Sally to grow stronger from it.
Finding herself in the Acorn family crypt where her mutilated corpse had been buried in a time all but forgotten, Sally knew what she had to do... She would find that abomination she had created, the beast that was now Sonic... and she would not stop until he was fucking dead!!!
After all, sometimes it takes evil to defeat evil...
Hail to the queen, baby!!!
--Sally typically smells of decay and rotting meat and her body is cold to the touch, like a walking corpse... She has no pulse or heartbeat, or lifesigns of any kind, except for her fully-functional digestive system... She doesn't need to eat normal food, as her primary source of nourishment now comes from the blood, flesh, and souls of the living...
